Cloonan and Cho launch 'K.G.B.' webcomic
Published Friday, Sep 11 2009, 08:20 BST | By Hugh Armitage
Comic creators Becky Cloonan and Hwan Cho have joined forces to produce a new weekly webcomic.
K.G.B. tells the tale of a Korean rap group trying to find success in the '90s.
The comic's tagline is "You paid for the whole seat, but you'll only use the edge!"
"K.G.B. is something we had in mind when we were self-publishing our own book ten years back," Cho told Comic Book Resources. "Even back then, we wanted to make this a fun webcomic project. It got pushed back when we got busy with school, work and life.
"A lot has changed over the years - we're more mature and focused, and definitely have a better grasp of the industry. It makes more sense to work on K.G.B. now then it was ten years ago - I don't think we would have been able to pull through it then."
Cloonan, best known as the artist of Demo and American Virgin, recently wrote and illustrated Pixu and East Cost Rising.
Cloonan and Cho met while studying at New York City’s School of Visual Arts.
K.G.B. was launched on September 9.
